O’ Blithe soul!
The envoy of peace
How blessed you are indeed!
The blue sky is all yours,
All birds your cohort,
And a carefree and blissful life you...
The word slept on its way
from a heart to another.
when it woke up,
it was amidst thousand other sleeping words.
panicked, lost, helpless,
the word went back...
Souls leave no shadows
And no more shades either.
For, they remain in those
Moth eaten sepias as relics
Of those we may have loved once,
And killed many...
Blood, despair, dismay,
Terror shadowing the town,
Everybody is silent, by some unknown eyes
We are being eyed..
And deep inside the cucoomb,
The hearts are crying...
Step by step,...
